After a bad experience in being assigned not one, but TWO rooms that had not been cleaned from the prior occupancy at the first hotel I booked online after a long day of driving, I got a refund and booked a room online at the Best Western Country Inn. The night clerk was friendly and efficient, the room was clean and ready for occupancy, the bed comfortable, and the hotel was dog friendly with an affordable $25 fee. The breakfast in the morning was nicely done with lots of selections for a full, hot meal or other lighter options.

The only small markdown at all was for no elevator to the second floor (my husband who is semi-handicapped struggles with stairs), and the water in the shower never got warm for the morning showers.

On the breakfast menu during my stay: Eggs, Chorizo, Tortillas, Shredded cheese, Biscuits and gravy. Also available was; Pancakes, toast, bagel and cream cheese, yogurt, coffee, juice, milk, string cheese. Loved the flavor of the pancakes. Cereal was also available. Breakfast area was very clean. Seating area had some comfortable bench seats and chairs and tables. My Room was so spacious, clean and the bed was comfortable. Wifi signal strong.

Not a complaint just a suggestion due to my personal preference. Requesting to place an additional roller shade on the front window to darken the room more.

The receptionist was very nice and helpful. We were there for an organized bicycle ride in nearby Ferndale so the motel was very full, and prices reflected that increased demand. Even with the full motel, it did not seem overcrowded. There was plenty of parking near our room and the breakfast room was not overflowing in the morning. The night after the ride the hot tub was a real treat for sore muscles. Breakfast was good and staff was attentive to keeping it clean and well stocked. I prefer oatmeal I can scoop over the instant packets, but it's not a deal breaker. I really liked that the dry cereal had something besides raisin bran and corn flakes (e.g. Cocoa Puffs--I also like Cocoa Krispies). The location was far enough off the highway to be quiet.

The walls are not very soundproof. The first night we got neighbors who arrived right at our bedtime. Fortunately they didn't turn on the TV but the woman seemed very excitable and talked nonstop when they first got there. I made a comment in a normal voice that we seemed to have gotten talkative neighbors. I think they heard my comment through the walls because the woman finally stopped chattering soon after. The second night was nice because I think the room was empty and all was quiet. I wish motels would put heavier insulation between rooms when they build. Once the place is built, there's not much you can do to insure a quiet, private stay.

I had requested, and advised it would be available, 2 queens on a ground floor or near an elevator if that was required. When we checked in there was nothing on the ground floor with 2 queens. I am not able to climb the steps. The hostess worked with my daughter and found a king bed on the ground floor which worked out all right. However, had I been travelling with my son that would not have worked.

Helpful and friendly staff. Very clean and quiet. Vanity outside bathroom. Charcoal grills and picnic tables. Awesome breakfast options - eggs, sausage, biscuits, gravy, Greek yogurt, milk and almond milk, pancake machine, and the regular starches including non sugary cereal. Larger than average room. Clean pool area. Heat lamp in bathroom. Little frig had separate freezer compartment.

Grounds were nice, and it was very quiet. The beds were comfortable! Everything was clean and well cared for. It was in a convenient location for travelers!

There was a designated outdoor smoking area very near our room, and so that was a bit unpleasant if it was in use. (When we were coming/going outside.)

We loved the old-school vibe. The property was welcoming and made us feel like we were back home. GREAT breakfast. My husband is still talking about the biscuits and gravy.

We wish we could have stayed longer. We could have kicked back on one of those balcony benches for hours.

BW is conveniently located at the gateway to Redwoods. The staff was friendly and helpful, breakfast was very nice, good value for money overall

The rooms and facilities, including the pool and spa zone, are all quite old and worn out

Breakfast, always so quiet even though it's like a 100 ft from 101

Weirdly our toilet in our room started to act up and not flush properly through our mid week of our stay.

Excellent location for exploring the big trees, close to avenue of the giants. Good breakfast, walking distance to Eel River walk, restaurants & a nice brewery. Comfortable accommodations will return.

A longer stay...
